December 2023 Issue 

Mapping Customer Operations (MCO) is responsible for the supply management of approximately 164,000 National Stock Numbers in four federal supply classes—7641 

(Aeronautical), 7642 (Hydrographic), 7643 (Topographic), and 7644 (Digital CD/DVD). 

MCO also manages special programs including Fleet Allowance, Flight Information Publications, and War Reserve. 

While this is “nice to know” information, MCO understands that most of our customers 

just want to order and receive mapping products with the least amount of hassle. We 

have no control over some of the hurdles you face, such as AMPS, but know that MCO is 

always available to help you through the process. The contact list on the last page of this 

newsletter is probably more important than anything else in this publication. Never hesitate to give MCO a call or send an email. You will not reach a call center. Instead, you 

will talk to an item manager or account manager who will help you until your Issue is resolved. We pride ourselves on customer service and support to the war fighter. We value your feedback, so please let us know how we are doing or how we can improve. In 

addition, let us know what types of articles you would like to see in future newsletters.

within the Mapping Enterprise Business System (MEBS). Go to https://amps.dla.mil/ to 

register and click on the link to request a role. You will receive email confirmation once 

approved. To access your account, log in to AMPS and select your MEBS role.

A couple of registration hints—you will be asked to identify your supervisor, and security officer. These individuals will receive AMPS-generated emails throughout the registration process and must be answered for the account to be approved. You will also 

need to know your last Information Assurance training date. One last item you will need 

is your DODAAC, which will be your map/chart account number. Please keep all 

AMPS/MEBS related emails, especially the one containing your SAAR number. Changing account custodians on an existing account is done in much the same way. as opening a new account. New custodians must also register in AMPS using the map account

New Map Products Available!

There are now 3 classes of topographic maps in the DLA Map Catalog and Interactive DLA Map Catalog in FEDMALL; 

Standard, Provisional and Automated. 

Standard maps are service products have undergone a FULL human review and meet the symbology/labeling criteria, 

data conditioning, and/or full data content as specified in the Topographic Map Data Product Specification.

data content, data conditioning and improved cartographic portrayal. Provisional products only PARTIALLY meet the 

symbology/labeling criteria, data conditioning, and/or full data content as specified in the Topographic Map Data Product Specification, but are deemed sufficient by the customer to support user-defined missions. They are identified in the 

catalogs with the word “Provisional” in the title and/or “PROV” at the end of the NGA Reference Number (NRN).

Automated Products are self or assisted-service products, computer-generated from existing geospatial data and receive NO human review. Automated products DO NOT meet the symbology/labeling criteria, data conditioning, and/or 

full data content as specified in the TM/MTM DPS, but are deemed sufficient by the customer to support time-sensitive 

missions. They are identified in the catalogs with the word “Automated” in the title and “AUTO” at the end of the NGA 

Reference Number (NRN).
